Human activities contribute significantly to increasing temperatures, carbon emissions, and decreasing biodiversity. In response, the construction industry is adopting more sustainable practices in both building and renovation to address climate challenges and resource shortages. This shift has introduced a range of new terms, which this podcast aims to clarify.
